clutch issue

[ek9hatch]

okay so i was driving normal today and i just finished rebuilding my new motor and new cultch act2600 and resurfaced flywheel was done as it should be.
the motor now has about 700 miles now and this happen.

i was driving normal and when i wanted to shift into 2nd gear the clutch pedal kicked back harder than normal and i keep on driving but like what the hell just happen. so as i got to a stop light it wouldnt let me go in gear and i no longer have a strong pedal. so i manage to get it home and i noticed that when the cars off i have a stronger cultch pedal then when the cars on. weird i know
the slave looks good and so does the master. any thoughts on what it can be
or what to look for.

broken TB Fork is all i can say

get under then and look were you slave pushes and move the lil rubber seal and peek in and see if you see anything bad

okay pulled the tranny and to find out that the pp 8 fingers were bent downwards why is this the tranny wasnt shifting cause the tob is in great shape
and disc is fine. defect?

Is the clutch kit new, if so its a defect.

 

[bradselph]

so the pressure plate collapsed?

if so its most likely a defect take it back if its new like posted above

what is PP 8 fingers? Do you mean the clutch fingers on the Pressure Plate. (never was good at text lingo)

At what Torque did you tighten the bolts too? (the clutch bolts, Pressure plate to Fly wheel?)
